Personal Narrative: Graduating High School

302 Words2 Pages

I dedicated myself to passing geometry in order to be accepted at CSU Channel Islands. Unfortunately, my admission was rescinded because I did not meet the geometry requirement because I went through a lot of stress meanwhile geometry being a challenging subject for me was not helping the situation. I was close to meeting the requirement, but I was not able to improve enough.
As I previously mentioned, I went through a lot of stress during my senior year because I was going through personal issues. I never had any problems passing other subjects but math has never been an easy subject for me. Graduating high school was an eye-opening experience that made me realize that I should not allow my personal issues get in the way of achieving my educational

    The lunch bell rang loudly in my ear as I packed up my materials from math class. As soon as Mrs. Millie released our class, I raced everyone else in our grade to my locker so I wouldn’t have to wait in the back.

    While I do not consider it a failure now at the time I was definitely frustrated with myself and considered it a failure. When I had to repeat my junior year I was mad at myself for not be able to complete the school year. As time went on I was able to focus on the positives in the situation and I was able to finally accept that I was not prepared for my senior year both emotionally and academically considering I missed so much school. If I did continue on to senior year I would not have been close to prepared as I am now for college. I ended up repeating my junior year due to the fact that I missed close to two-thirds of school due to a medical condition.

    If I were the person that I used to be back in high school, or even directly after high school, I would fail these classes with straight “F”s. The reason is not because I was not smart enough, but because I was not willing to put in the effort, concentration, and dedication needed to get a good grade. This is hard work! Good thing I decided to grow up a bit in the past 14 years so I take it seriously.

    I went from geometry straight to Pre Calculus skipping Algebra II. I knew coming into this class that it would be unbelievable hard.

I knew I wanted to take this class, I have been particularly good up until now at math

    How I Graduated High School Have you ever procrastinated for so long that it finally caught up to you? Well that was the story of my life in my senior year of high school. To me, high school wasn’t about learning and doing school work, it was more about hanging out with friends and living a life of leisure and free time. Needless to say, by the end of my sophomore year, everything changed and I learned things the hard way. Getting your responsibilities out of the way, and taken care of is always better done soon rather than later.

    I was up for the challenge for more. And when I entered high school, I thought that I would challenge myself early on and skip a full year of algebra, right into geometry. I was actually doing really well in the class. The content was easy and understanding it was just as simplistic as I had expected. While this did not hold true to AP Environmental Science at the time, the class nonetheless turned out to be a lot more fun and less intimidating than what the title "AP" had suggested, to which, I ended up getting an A in the class.
